Navigating the sprawling, maze-like halls of a medical center, Sultan—a senior woman unable to read or write—moves through the building on a focused quest to locate her hospitalized husband. Every corridor brings her into contact with strangers enduring vastly different struggles, gradually stripping away comfort and exposing her to life's unyielding truths. This intimately crafted narrative transforms a simple directional search into a powerful exploration of resilience, empathy, and the shared burdens that define the human experience.
